Tantai Qin's sudden intervention surprised not only the princes and nobles, but also anyone who knew even a little about the inside story.
Once you reach the level of a king or noble, it's rare to make enemies easily. Everyone will exercise relative restraint. After all, even the emperor's anger can cause corpses to lie scattered for miles, and the wrath of a king or noble could burn everything to ashes.
However, once a feud develops between kings and nobles, it is equally difficult to resolve.
Because there are very few people and things in this world that can make them compromise easily.
When they reach this level, their love and hate are clear, and they have no need to hide anything.
Ordinary people can say "time will eventually heal all wounds" and let it go, but for kings and nobles, decades or hundreds of years are meaningless.
It's even possible that a feud could last for thousands of years.
The Marquis of Jingcheng and the Duke of Yanshan were examples of this.
The source of their conflict is unknown; perhaps only the two of them truly know the truth.
However, as long as the Marquis of Jingcheng was in the south, the Duke of Yanshan almost never crossed that line. There were even rumors that the Marquis of Jingcheng voluntarily took up a small town in the southwest because the Duke of Yanshan had already seized control of the north. Only in this way could the Marquis of Jingcheng contend with the Duke of Yanshan.
Regardless, Shen Qian was the last disciple of the Marquis of Jingcheng, while Tantai Qin was the first disciple of the Duke of Yanshan.
The two are inherently opposed.
But now, witnessed by countless people, Tantai Qin drew her longsword and stood before Shen Qian.
Even though Tantai Qin is the vice principal of Jiangzhong Military Academy, and Shen Qian is theoretically her student, it's not enough to prove anything.
As he gazed at the other person's back, he was thinking about something else entirely.
He was certain that although Tantai Qin and the Moon Goddess looked exactly alike, upon closer inspection, he could still detect subtle differences between them.
The difference is hard to describe in words. If I had to describe it, it would be that although the Tantai Qin in front of me is also extremely cold, she has more humanity than the Moon Goddess back then.
If Tantai Qin is the ancient moon goddess, does she still remember the scene when she met him?
Looking back, did Tantai Qin's unusual behavior after she used the "Questioning Three Lives" supernatural power on him mean that she also realized something?
The years that followed were extremely long, and Shen Qian had no idea how much Tantai Qin had gone through afterward.
boom!
While Shen Qian was lost in thought, the terrifying aura unique to top-tier kings and nobles rushed towards him, but Shen Qian didn't feel much of it because Tantai Qin almost blocked it all for him.
Just as Chen Qian was about to take action, Tantai Qin beat him to it.
If the Marquis of Fierce Bones stood unmoved at this moment, his mere aura making him seem like a towering mountain, then the sword light that suddenly rose from Tantai Qin's hand was like a moon blade tearing everything apart, cold yet overflowing with killing intent.
Everyone was horrified.
No one expected that, facing the Marquis of Fierce Bones, Tantai Qin not only did not passively defend, but actually dared to take the initiative to draw her sword!
"Overestimating yourself!"
Marquis Liegu's face was full of disdain. He sneered and reached out to grab, trying to destroy Tantai Qin's sword light with his brute strength.
Clang!
When the palm touched the sword's edge, it produced a sound like metal clashing.
The sword light shattered into pieces in the hands of the Fierce Bone Marquis as he wished, but the Fierce Bone Marquis also let out a muffled groan, his face showing an expression of disbelief.
His hand recoiled as if electrocuted. Although the Marquis of Fierce Bone quickly withdrew his hand, Shen Qian, with his exceptional eyesight, still managed to see through the deception.
Exquisitely rich golden blood splattered down, and a cut several centimeters long was clearly visible on the palm of the Marquis of Fierce Bones.
The child's eye shrank slightly before sinking.
Marquis Liegu... was actually injured by Tantai Qin's sword?
He looked around uncertainly, only to find that not only him, but most of the powerful kings and nobles around him had changed their expressions drastically, clearly showing an expression of disbelief.
Chen Qian looked back at Tantai Qin, whose sword tip was pointing diagonally at the ground and whose black dress was fluttering in the air, and was somewhat stunned.
This sword strike not only shattered Shen Qian's understanding of Tantai Qin, but also his understanding of the top experts in the Mountain and Sea Realm.
After the ancient journey, Shen Qian's strength advanced by leaps and bounds. He once thought that the mountains and seas were nothing special. It wasn't until he obtained the Heaven-Mending Stone in the battlefield of ten thousand races and borrowed the power of Tantai Qin's sword that Shen Qian began to realize how powerful Tantai Qin was.
But only now, watching helplessly as Tantai Qin wounded Gao Zhengjie with a single sword strike, and feeling the increasingly terrifying aura emanating from Tantai Qin, did Shen Qian suddenly realize how far away he was from Tantai Qin.
He was certain that, without using his clone's power, he wouldn't have been able to contend with the Fierce Bone Marquis, whose aura was as powerful as a raging storm.
But Tantai Qin did it.
"Good, very good!"
Marquis Liegu, who had unconsciously taken a step back, was also extremely shocked and furious. He squinted at Tantai Qin and laughed angrily, "I didn't expect you to have gone this far. Han Chi has really taken on a good disciple!"
Marquis Liegu was clearly consumed by rage and disregarded all etiquette, shouting out the Duke of Yanshan's real name in front of everyone.
Tantai Qin still did not respond. She tilted her head slightly, her gaze coldly fixed on Liegu Hou, the long sword in her hand humming softly, as if responding to its master's wishes.
"I'll give you one last chance. Step aside, and I can pretend that nothing happened today."
Marquis Liegu remained defiant, but Shen Qian keenly detected a hint of apprehension in the other's gaze.
Shen Qian was even more confused. Why would a king or nobleman be afraid of mountains and seas?
However, Chen Qian was unsure whether this was due to Tantai Qin's unique circumstances.
